Installing Guacamole on CentOS 7
-
Based on my extremely limited experience with it, I'd suggest just configuring a jumpbox, lol.

@dafyre Why? Does it not work well?

The SSH font looks like something from a circus act (this may well be an easy fix... see my screenshots above)... and the RDP plugin doesn't capture windows keys, like Alt+Tab, etc.
That's my biggest reason for suggesting a jump box.

Well you can use the same box as a jump box, too. No need to have two. But I'm sure we could fix the font easily, just no one looked at it.

But even then, Copy / Paste didn't work from the SSH VM like it would with Putty, etc. I think it can be a great solution in a pinch, but if you need anything serious, I don't see it being a ll that great.

Yeah, a web interface is never going to be as nice as a good terminal session.

I think they can be. Guacamole's RDP sessions are great. They're not slow at all in my testing. The issue I have is being able to (easily) use the Windows Shortcut keys from a PC or Android device.

No package libssh-dev available. No package vncserver-devel available.Why? rpel-release is installed.
-
libvncserver-devel is the correct package.

libssh-dev doesn't seem to exist, but libssh2-devel does

Seems to be missing some packages

pulseaudio-libs-devel needs to be added.

That's intentionally on my side. They are optional and still I'm not looking for. What's Vorbis being used for here?

They are purely optional components.
